The Masurian Canal is an unfinished, impressive project that was intended to connect Mamry with Łyna and the Baltic Sea. Today, it runs through Poland and the Kaliningrad Oblast and is closed to navigation. On the Polish side, it's worth seeing the monumental locks in Leśniewo and the only operational lock, Piaski. Along the canal are embankments and former towpaths, perfect for walking or cycling.

Beautifully situated, small and cozy, it's the perfect place to relax and unwind in peace. After a bike ride, you can watch the boats for a bit. Unfortunately, there are no restaurants.
